j Property owners in this and neigh- ' boring villages whose land or buildings ; will be affected by the laying of the ' new 72-inch pipe line of the Brooklyn- j City Water Works system, have re- i ceived notice to appear before^ the i city authorities to make settlement. j While some of the residents may ap- I pear before the authorities and settle j with them there are others who will not sell under any considerations and ' will fight the matter of the new pipe line to the last. The latter course, if it does not prevent V^ pipe line j from coming through here, will have I a tendency to tie up matters for some \ time to come. It is expected that the city wi'l find it necessary to acquire much of the property on the proposed line by condemnation.
Elvin N. Edwards, attorney for the
Allied Boards of Trade and Civic Clubs

for the Freeport Board of Trade, is

The home of Mr. and Mrs. F. S. Howell, 33 Pearsall Ave., last Satur¬ day, Aug. 15, was a scene of pleasure and gayety among the invited guests - to a luncheon given in honor]{of their daughter Gladys' eleventh birthday.
There was a happy time enjoyed by the children, who indulged in music, singing and croquet. At four o'clock they marched to the'table, where an elaborate luncheon awaited them. The dining room was tastefully decorated with pink and white crepe paper, the flowers being of the same color; in the centre of the table was a large birth¬ day cake with eleven white and pink candl^ burning. Gladys proved a chamnng little hostess, and she was remembered with a great many useful and pretty presents; the gift of her parents was a pretty gold bracelet, with her monogram, C. G. H., neatly engraved.
At seven o'clock the little people said farewell to each other and tra¬ veled home, each one expressing their ^[oodi^ wisher for many returns of the day.

Never before in its history has High Hill Beach been open to such large crowds as are flocking there this Sum¬ mer, especially the last couple of weeks. All the boats are crowded and a great many private parties come to the place from the surrounding villages.
The Republican Club promises to "wake up" High Hill beach next Wed¬ nesday, when they hold their annual outing to that place. We might also add that we are informed there's a Democratic outing to» High Hill tne same day. "Bill" in sure to be heard somewhere.
There will be a big time in Bellmore this (Friday) evening, when the banner raising of the 2nd District Republican Association will tak'e place upon the poles set up nearly in front of F'ire- men's Hall on Bedford, Avenue. The evenings' celebration will be opened by John G. Deubert, president of the association and prominently identified with this branch of the G. O. P. for many years. It is not known just what speakers will be present but it is ex pected to have Representative Cocks of Westbury, Assemblyman Miller of Freeport, Sheriff Joseph Foster, County Clerk Charles S. Lewis, with possibly others worthy of note.
In order to lay a cement sidewalk in front of the Memorial Church, sub¬ scription lists are being circulated, with the following results up to Wednesday;

Never before in its history has High Hill Beach been open to such large crowds as are flocking there this Sum¬ mer, especially the last couple of weeks. All the boats are crowded and a great many private parties come to the place from the surrounding villages.
The Republican Club promises to "wake up" High Hill beach next Wed¬ nesday, when they hold their annual outing to that place. We might also add that we are informed there's a Democratic outing to» High Hill tne same day. "Bill" in sure to be heard somewhere.
There will be a big time in Bellmore this (Friday) evening, when the banner raising of the 2nd District Republican Association will tak'e place upon the poles set up nearly in front of F'ire- men's Hall on Bedford, Avenue. The evenings' celebration will be opened by John G. Deubert, president of the association and prominently identified with this branch of the G. O. P. for many years. It is not known just what speakers will be present but it is ex pected to have Representative Cocks of Westbury, Assemblyman Miller of Freeport, Sheriff Joseph Foster, County Clerk Charles S. Lewis, with possibly others worthy of note.
In order to lay a cement sidewalk in front of the Memorial Church, sub¬ scription lists are being circulated, with the following results up to Wednesday;
